NTK Reference
afterScript
slot in a template contains code which is executed at build time after the template has been built. It is a chance for you to post-process the template. The afterScript
contains a sequence of statements (not a function). Within the code, thisView
refers to the just-built template (a not-very-apt name since it is a template, not a view).
Here's an example afterScript
from a protoStaticText template which sets the viewBounds
to values based on constants:
thisView.viewBounds := SetBounds(kViewLeft, kViewTop, kViewRight, kViewBottom);
